Turning a natural edge platter?
woodndesign:
May I just add: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trencher_%28tableware%29 as it is of interest.
Cheers

I must admit I did not think to search for a trencher - I came across my information while visiting HMS Victory. I like the look of the wooden trenchers, and the little secondary hollow - possibly for a condiment (Mustard/salt?)

Hi Bryan,
I'd read up on that before, the idea of being square was for easy of use on the table and for better stowage than round plates, could the hollow be for your Rum glass .. ;) ..
Google trencher tableware and a whole load in images .. trencher alone is a load of trench cutters.
Arcos, this maybe a little removed from your platter .. :-[ ...

I gotta say I am loving Trencherware!
This is the kind of stuff that dreams are made of!!!
It's rustic enough for me to find a market here ;)

I'm sure they will sit great beside your frozen olive wood wine goblets.
